Good evening, thanks so much for all of your lovely entries for week # 12.

Morning everyone. Well it's official, Summer has been & gone, it's September & the kids are all making their way back to school if they aren't back already & life will be settling back into a steady routine again. I for one can't wait!

We had another great selection of entries last week & the girls have certainly enjoyed visiting your blogs. If we haven't got round to yours yet don't worry we will in the next few days.

Our resident sponser Julie has given us this wonderful set of stamps as this week's prize. You can visit Julie's shop by clicking on the link in the sidebar.

This week it was my turn to create the sketch & theme & I think the DT have enjoyed this one. I love to Xstitch & do Paper Embroidery so this week I would love to see some stitching on your cards. But don't panic you don't have to use real stitching...... faux stitching can be used too. Here is the sketch.......We have had another brilliant card this week from our fab Guest Designer Clare.

I hope you have enjoyed your 2 weeks with us. We have certainly enjoyed seeing the cards you have created. Don't forget to pop over & have a look at Clare's blog here .

Here are the cards from the rest of the DT this week.

Heidi (The Crafty Goat Girl)
